What some people call sound is just for the moment for them "comfortable". Remember in the OT quite often the men of God wrote that "they had no comforter". When we always follow the Comforter, which is now available instead of only our logic, that should result in sound doctrine, but I would be...

No need to be sorry! Just stand with God. He has all of the answers anyone needs. We really don't always need as many answers as we think we do. More often I believe that we simply want answers.

But what about those God spits out of His mouth? Are they not in between? "I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth." Rev 3:15-16

Why would you conclude that he rejects the Bible because he, not having English as his first language, doesn't understand very well what most people with English as their first language, who regularly sit in church pews do not understand? How well do you get along in Tagalog when reading your...

Are those "reputable Greek scholars" similar to the scholars in Jerusalem who contended with Jesus because they were the ones who sat in Moses seat while he was seemingly only a carpenter's son? Where did Jesus get his reputation?

To go back could be to return to our own vomit or to look back with longing to Sodom. Let us rather look forward seeking the very face of God as He told David to do!

Even as Jesus prayed that we, you and I and the other guy, might be in mind together with God and His Son: "Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be...

You have simply fallen back on some of the same arguments I have heard from many others over the years. When I said I did not "embrace" I was trying communicate that while I don't believe in a Trinity of God, neither do I reject it. Without a revelation from God on it, how could I reject it...

For communication's sake, perhaps... If when a person uses the word, "saved" and they are really concerned with God's reaction or the lack thereof, we have express ourselves also differently. What did Jesus mean here? No salvation or no glory? Is there a difference? "While I was with them in...

Yes there is that option as well. I've never used it here, but I purposely avoid unnecessary contact with some people because I have seen little or nothing edifying in their writings. I also avoid certain subjects which rarely do more than result in a lot of futile name calling. Help us dear Lord!

Have you ever heard a Catholic here or anywhere tell of how the Catholic Church brought together for men the Bible? They would say they compiled it and preserved it. If they did, did not God have a part in that? The individual prophets, teachers, apostles, writers or whatever they might be named...

@marks They ate the forbidden fruit and obtained what? Death! "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." Gen 2:17 So then being dead, was not the knowledge of good and evil received also dead...

We may use yesterday's example to help us so as not to repeat their mistakes, but how many people really do that assuming they really know what yesterday's mistakes were? Comparing yesterday with today for the sake of comparing does what? Who does it edify? Could we or should we now in a...

Indeed, but translators are helpful, are they not, to people who read only their own native language? It of course would better if the translator were also anointed by God in the translation from the original written language to the language of the reader. A translator anointed by God in his...

What is it that Solomon meant with these words? "Say not thou, What is the cause that the former days were better than these? for thou dost not inquire wisely concerning this." Ecc 7:10

How can we know if God has not revealed it to us? Is the judgement given to us to make? "Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again." Matt 7:1-2

@shortangel Happy birthday to you!

Indeed! "Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." James 5:16 The "righteous man" will pray according to God's will and sometimes as a result closed doors will be opened for another...

Facts? Are we not to live by faith as Paul wrote? And faith? "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Heb 11:1 Believers in God and His Son do have some facts, but generally speaking they seldom know the difference between facts know and faith held...

And what is being 'black listed' by any man? Is it death to your soul? "And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." Matt 10:28
